Electric Imp Energy Pulse Counter logging into EmonCMS

Submitted by dkcsn on Wed, 28/05/2014 - 18:44

Hi There.

I used the Electric IMP with the http://shop.openenergymonitor.com/tsl257-optical-pulse-sensing-kit/ optical LED.

Each minute I post the number of pulses counted from the electric meter to EmonCMS, that works fine, and I played round with the guides - but newer succeeded to make a correct initial configuration to show the power consumption per day.

10.000 Pulses is 1Kwh.

Is there anybody that can help me with a basic EmonCMS configuration for this?

Best Regards

Christian Søgaard Nielsen

Have you tried something like this?

You have an input that is number of pulses for the past hour?

So if you divide that by 10.000 you get kWh. But as you can't divide by 10 multiply by 0.01.

Then use the process under power kWh -> kWh/d

and log that to a feed.

My input is for each minute - so I have to sum 60 minutes for getting a hour .

Ooops must have been asleep not to see that!

Add an "accumlator process" in after you have done the multiplication.
